The race was held on Thanksgiving day (November 28th), 1895,
having been postponed from November 2nd. Six cars started but
only 2 finished. The Duryea entry, driven by J. Frank Duryea,
won in 10 hours and 23 minutes, including 2 off course excursions
and one 55 minute stop for repairs after a steering arm broke.
The only other car to finish was the Benz of Oscar Mueller, who
enlisted the help of his ride-along umpire, C.B. King, to drive
the last hour after he became sick.
